Currently i have a ppc 6700, will it worth it to upgrade to ppc 6800 once it hits Sprint?

Yep, it will be.

No offense but this types of threads are useless. You are the only person that can determine if it'll be worth it, and if you have to ask it probably won't.

Are you unhappy with the 6700's memory, size, external antenna, <add any other feature changed from the 6700 to the 6800>? If the answer is yes, are you willing to pay the price of the 6800? (Rumors say it'll be $550 without contract or upgrade rebate).

If you answered yes to both questions, then yes, it'll be worth it to you. My recommendation is to research the 6800, there's tons of info on these threads including a PDF file with all the specs, and then determine if you need it or cannot live without it.

I tried the Sprint PC6800 very disappointed. Sound was like an old 9v radio including Bluetooth from the 60's. had a nice screen.

Just read the entire forum and decide for yourself.... I love it.

There are improvements, but it really depends on your needs. If you have access to an Exchange 2007 server, then this phone is better over the stock 6700 because WM6 Outlook has features that WM5 Outlook does not. If you need EVDO revision A upgradability then the 6800 is a good choice. The 6700 currently has tons of custom roms that the 6800 does not have yet, so if you need that then you might want to wait. There are a lot of factors, but it really just depends on your needs.
